In this series we have discussed how following Jesus will mean that we will face opposition because we belong to him. This week we examine the right (and wrong) reasons why we may face opposition as well as the role that worship has in our experience of God in the middle of our suffering.

As followers of Jesus we will face the temptation to yield our hearts to things that our culture thinks is okay. In this message we see the example of how Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego resisted the pressure to conform to the culture they were in and reflect on what we can do to maintain our own allegiance to Jesus.
